Few drivers, even in a petrol or diesel-powered car, would think of tackling the 412-mile journey between London and Glasgow without stopping for fuel along the way. Even fewer would be able to make it without pulling over for a comfort break. And yet, if you’re driving the new Tesla Model 3 Long Range Rear Wheel Drive – and have an iron bladder – it’s something you could do.
Indeed, with an official range of up to 436 miles between charges, the Long Range Rear Wheel Drive is not only the longest-range Model 3 variant yet, but also the most efficient, averaging 20.1kWh per 100 miles.
That official range is more than any version of the rival BMW i4 can manage, and also more than the 406-mile official range of the Polestar 2 in Long Range Single Motor form.
Of course, you’re unlikely to see that headline range figure in real-world conditions. When we tested a Model 3 RWD as part of our annual summer range test, for example, it managed 255 miles before running out of juice – 19.7% less than its official range of 318 miles. The Model 3 was, however, the most efficient car in our test, averaging 4.4mi/kWh.
